Hello. Its my second topic here but know i want to be sure about this. So listen.

 

 
Month ago i bought my graphic card Asus Strix 980 Ti. Also i have a little problem. When i launch a game and fans accelerates ( spins up ) i can hear randomly ( not always ) for a moment little audible clicking\scratchy noises from a fans. Then noise is gone and all is ok.
The fans on card just make randomly clicking\scratching noises when starting spinning. Then noise is gone after 1 minute of gaming .Is this reason to RMA? 
 
Here is the noise what i am talking about ( in link this noise is from Asus Gtx 780 strix , but the noise is the same on my card Asus Gtx 980 Strix) :
 
( check 0:23 second when fans are ramping up )

If it pisses you off, RMA it. Could be a damaged bearing. Impossible to know for sure.
